Halloween Was Bomb/Hello, World!

Goodbyes are tough, but hellos are just as hard, in our humble opinion. After all, first impressions can determine whether or not someone will become your new best pal or, as is more likely in our case, think we’re total loonies and run screaming in the opposite direction. Plus there is just so much to say, and there’s no bloody way we could possibly narrow it down to the 2-3 brief paragraphs you’ve got time to read! So instead of trying to come up with some sort of clever introductory post, we thought we’d give you guys a peek at what our apartment looked like for our first annual Halloween party (just now decided to make it a tradition, fyi). That way, if you run off screaming we can console ourselves with the fact that this was a Halloween post, and therefore ought to insight some form of terror in the heart of its beholder.

“Poison” candy apples (while not fatal, they will turn your poop black and probably give you cavities. YUM.)Seriously, how cute are these angry little guys? SO CUTE RIGHT?! SO CUTE.Paying homage to school and city with a pumpkin barfing spinach artichoke dip. It was warm, and it was yummy.

Most of the decorations are DIY and all of the treats are homemade, because well, Pinterest. Needless to say, it was pretty awesome for something thrown by a trio of perpetually underfunded college students, and we’re happy with how it turned out. How did you all celebrate Halloween? Give us all the scary, sordid details!
